Hybrid engines for unmanned aircraft

A more economic, durable, and powerful motor for UAVs.

The concept

UAVHE develops engines to power commercial drones.
We have several ready models and can create a custom modification to meet your requirements.

We focus on hybrids to utilize the strengths of both electric and combustion technologies. Gasoline has 50 times the energy density of batteries, while electric motors are indispensable
at maneuvering.

A hybrid engine for a multirotor solves several problems of a purely electric motor.

  • It ensures greater endurance with the same take-off weight.
  • The UAV becomes lighter with fuel consumption and flies farther than electric UAVs of a comparable capacity.
  • Flight control becomes easier and allows for a lower pilot qualification.

Key features

Automatic engine calibration. The ECU adapts mixture and timing to fuel, altitude and temperature without manual tuning.

CAN 2.0B, SAE J1939. Start, stop, power demand and full telemetry over one bus; drops into standard autopilot integrations.

Built-in diagnostics. Temperatures, speed, fuel flow and fault codes are logged and streamed to the ground station.

Integrated starter-generator. Electric start in flight and on the ground; the same machine adds torque boost and regenerative braking.

In-cycle torque compensation. The controller smooths torque pulses within each revolution, reducing vibration at the airframe and payload.

Two-stage fuel injection. Injection at the transfer port and the throttle body for stable running across the full load range.

Co-creation

Are you developing a new drone? Is it at the stage of idea, concept, or prototype? Despite the stage, you can involve us as co-creators to develop a more efficient solution.

Think of using our technologies with your drone platform, whatever size and payload you plan for.

We are interested in creating a wide range of powerful multirotor platforms for multiple forms of usage, be it utility inspection, agriculture, goods delivery, search and rescue, or disaster relief.

We can also help to create an engine that will endure specific conditions such as extreme frost, heat, moisture, dust, etc.
